Berweuli

Trabzon


This special restaurant serves French-inspired lunches (beef Bourguignon, cassoulet, ratatouille), adding Italian and Ottoman recipes after 6pm. The dining space leads back from a restored historic house into a glass-roofed garden with a pair of olive trees, perched on the top of the Ortahisar fortress parapet.

Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights there's excellent live accoustic music. The name means pomegranate in the Laz language.
